Rush nights in the party train: Celebrate in the Ilztal from July 17th!

Celebration mood on the train: The Ilztalbahn starts a new party train that promises happy hours and tasty cocktails on rails. On Thursday, July 17, 2025, it says "After-Work-Train" and the Ilztalbahn in cooperation with Club Lobo from Waldkirchen invites you on board. Departure is at 6:30 p.m. at Passauer Hauptbahnhof, where after a three -hour drive with short breaks the starting point will be reached again around 10 p.m. On this route in the picturesque Ilztal, party enthusiasts can enjoy the time with a welcome drink and delicious snacks, while a DJ ensures atmospheric beats. For only 25 euros in the early bird discount until June 19, 2025, then the tickets rise to 29 euros.

The party train is specifically designed after work and students. It offers space for at least 60, but a maximum of 160 people and thus creates a unique way to spend social hours without being necessary. There may also be a smoking stop so that nobody has to do without their enjoyment.

The history of the Ilztalbahn

The Ilztalbahn has an eventful story. The route was originally approved by King Ludwig II in 1886, and construction began in 1887. Over the years, the railway developed into an important traffic route until passenger train traffic stopped in 1982 and the 2005 route was finally closed. But in the same year a support association was founded, which was committed to reviving the route. There has been a train traffic between Waldkirchen and Freyung since 2010, and seasonal weekend traffic has been taking place since 2011.

"It is a voluntary project that brings together many committed people to preserve and promote the important connection for business and tourism in the region," says Sebastian Grünzweig, the founder of the initiative. His two to three days a week, which he invests in the Ilztalbahn, show the tireless efforts for the train and the community. Support from politics is of great importance.

the expectation of passengers

The Ilztalbahn is now very popular in the region. Guests appreciate the special atmosphere and the opportunity to spend a good time while driving. The railway has gained popularity in recent years and is now estimated for its combination of relaxation and experiences. Although there are also challenges such as delays, the trips remain in the context of expectations and continue to ensure radiant faces and a good atmosphere.

With a dedicated team and a clear vision for the future, the Ilztalbahn has the potential to offer many other unforgettable festivals and events. So if you are looking for some variety in everyday life, you should not miss the ticket for the after-work train. The Büttel call from Passau Central Station could soon be at the end of an eventful working day and the start of an enjoyable evening trip!
